By default each Directory Server and Active Directory connector uses four worker threads to apply changes. This value is increased in the Global Telco deployment to improve the connector performance, especially during idsync resync operations. The number of connector threads is stored in the configuration directory in the pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads attribute, present in the pswSunDirectoryGlobals and in the pswActiveDirectoryGlobals entries. Before manually editing the configuration, all Identity Synchronization for Windows consoles must be closed.
To find the pswSunDirectoryGlobals entry, the following command is used:
bash-2.05# ./ldapsearch -b "ou=identitysynchronization,ou=services, dc=gt,dc=com" -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <omitted password\> "(&(objectclass=pswSunDirectoryGlobals) (pswversion\>=0))" pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads dn: cn=136,ou=Sun,ou=Globals,cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig,ou=1.1, ou=IdentityS ynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads: 4
The entry that must be modified is:
cn=136,ou=Sun,ou=Globals,cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig,ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com.
To find the pswActiveDirectoryGlobals entry, the following command is used:
bash-2.05# ./ldapsearch -b "ou=identitysynchronization,ou=services, dc=gt,dc=com" -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <omittied password\> "(&(objectclass=pswActiveDirectoryGlobals)(pswversion\>=0))" pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads dn: cn=110,ou=ActiveDirectory,ou=Globals,cn=active[13], ou=GlobalConfig, ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads: 4
The entry that must be modified is:
cn=110,ou=ActiveDirectory,ou=Globals, cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig,ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com.
These two entries are modified to increase the number of threads to a maximum of 20:
bash-2.05# ./ldapmodify -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <omitted password\> dn: cn=136,ou=Sun,ou=Globals,cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig,ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization, ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com changetype: modify replace: pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads: 20 modifying entry cn=136,ou=Sun,ou=Globals,cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig, ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com dn: cn=110,ou=ActiveDirectory,ou=Globals,cn=active[13],ou=GlobalConfig, ou=1.1, ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com changetype: modify replace: pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads pswNumOutboundConnectorThreads: 20 modifying entry cn=110,ou=ActiveDirectory,ou=Globals,cn=active[13], ou=GlobalConfig,ou=1.1,ou=IdentitySynchronization,ou=Services,dc=gt,dc=com
After these values are changed, the Identity Synchronization for Windows daemon on the Core machine is restarted to notify the System Manager to pick up the new configuration.
Increasing the number of connector threads also increases the maximum number of LDAP connections that the connector will keep open to the directory.
